Concern raised about Premier Travel stopping the 7:45 am Bus Service
Wednesday 3rd February 2010 Gregg Redford
It appears that Premier Travel have stopped running the X1 (Villages/Nottingham) 7:45 am service. The new revised route and timetable became effective on the 25th January 2010 and has been renamed 'Red 1' and is designated 'Bingham - Radcliffe - Nottingham'.

The service now appears to originate and terminate at Bingham. Aslockton commuters now have to use the 55 service to Bingham which should connect with the Bingham - Nottingham service, but regrettably this does not always work.

The fact that the service was stopped without any notice or consultation is of clearly of concern.

Have you been affected by this change - we would like your comments - please e-mail your comments to Aslockton On-Line by clicking here - please include 'X1 - Service' as the subject of your e-mail.
